About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

I've worked in the hospitality industry since I was 10 years old. I've worked every facet of hospitality except cooking. I've been driving for Uber and Lyft since 2017. I've been shopping for Instacart since 2020. I have been caring for children for about 45yrs. I went to school to be a teacher, but a family emergency cut short my education. I have taken infant and adult CPR. I have taken care of a special needs child in the past and am comfortable with that. I am a non-smoker. I prefer books, board games and outdoor activities. I go to church at a Christian church Sundays and Wednesday evenings. I am ok with working those days so long as the children can come to church with me. I am not a gourmet cook but I know my way around the kitchen for simple meals. Light housekeeping is negotiable. Please call me with any questions you may have and for a list of references.
